Watching more of the video, I think it is a different fight; more technical than the first performance.

The announcer stated not only that he was representing Team Sharmar, but he had a record of 1-0, so it likely wasnt' his debut.

I'm not looking forward to him coming back for round 17. All he ever does is repreat the same tripe until someone summons up the gumption to, once again, go search through his megathread and pull up exactly where he did in fact claim X/Y/Z and where/how it was already disproven.

If he wants to believe sparring is bad, that's his business, he's no different than most Bujinkan or Aikido; it's not the reason people investigated him.

I believe he is 4-0 now, this vid being from his second fight. He won some kind of title in Virginia in a 4-man.

Well, that's good for his fighter and, overall that's all that is important.
Brian Amy found a way to make it work for him.

That video also says he was representing gracie barra as well. At 13:22 the guy in his corner is wearing a gracie barra shirt. So to say team Shamar is responsible for his performance might be an overstatement.

Yes, there was a huge angry discussion and much gnashing of teeth about this very subject. Please keep it out of the org discussion. I'll find the YMAS thread.

Ah; had the sound off at work. I was at his debut. Impressive improvement.

IIRC Amy was affiliated with both teams at the time, and now is just with Gracie Barra, as Jason doesn't teach anyone any more.
